With the aspiration to get into the University of my choice that combines two of my favourite subjects (Moving image and photography), I'm currently aiming to make a final piece using the two mediums.
I haven't quite decided how I'm going to do it, and I know there are going to be a series of experiments during the weeks I have to do my FMP before I can actually say " Its definately this", however my current thoughts on it is making a film through photographs.
I'd had an assessment yesterday with my tutor about my recent unit which I'd posted up pictures for, and it had been mentioned that my pictures were visually good and that my camera work needs to be up to that scale.
Thinking last night about how I could manipulate the studio in college to try and get the right lighting for whatever idea I may have. I'm starting to think maybe I'll use a series of photographs to create a short film, or possibly combine the two. Or even trying to use the lighting in the photography studio that I've become more familiar with to get certain effects in my film.

The above video is a thought of use for low key lighting. Though shadows will have been enhanced by the fact that its black and white, its a good demonstration of how low key lighting can be used for different things. I.e creating shadows to tell a story (which I've already done for another production) and even certain situations that people are familiar with for low key lighting.
